If you didn't already have reason enough to avoid Keith Olbermann's left-wing screeching on Countdown, here's another one: Tonight (Wednesday), for the first time, he will devote his entire MSNBC hour, sans relief for commercials, to a “Special Comment” -- the kind of high-handed pontificating, laced with mean-spirited and cheap insults toward conservatives, so far confined to the last 8 to 11 minutes of the 8 PM EDT/5 PM PDT program re-run at 10 PM EDT/7 PM PDT.
“Special Comment Hour” topic: “Health Care Reform: The Fight Against Death.”
(Excerpt) Read more at newsbusters.org ...
“I am a gay American newsreader...”
GE must have ordered it’s stooges to go all out for government health care. Imaging Olbermann waiting in line at some government clinic. Never in a million years.
Five bucks on Death.
This explains so much.
What a lying and stupid title.
The fight against death is a battle everyone is going to lose, especially with Obozocare.
Nobody will listen but the far left loony tunes anyway.
Hint, call the advertisers and tell them you won’t buy anything associated with Obermann and if they continue you will change channels and buy from their competitors.
Quit giving him publicity IGNORE HIS SHOW
He is trying to gain viewers by being outrageous
Don’t fall for it
newsflash: Orwellbermann’s 2 minutes of hate will be expanded to a full hour
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two_Minutes_Hate
In George Orwell’s novel Nineteen Eighty-Four, the Two Minutes Hate (more properly, “Two Minutes’ Hate” or “Two-Minute Hate”) is a daily period in which Party members of the society of Oceania must watch a film depicting The Party’s enemies (notably Emmanuel Goldstein and his followers) and express their hatred for them and the principles of democracy.
The film and its accompanying auditory and visual cues (which include a grinding noise that Orwell describes as “of some monstrous machine running without oil”) are a form of brainwashing to Party members, attempting to whip them into a frenzy of hatred and loathing for Emmanuel Goldstein and the current enemy superstate. Apparently, it is not uncommon for those caught up in the hate to physically assault the telescreen, as Julia does during the scene. The film becomes more surreal as it progresses, with Goldstein’s face morphing into a sheep as enemy soldiers advance on the viewers, before one such soldier charges at the screen, machine gun blazing. He morphs, finally, into the face of Big Brother at the end of the two minutes. At the end, the mentally, emotionally, and physically exhausted viewers chant “BB” over and over again, ritualistically.
Orwell’s obvious reference in the sequence is to the utter demonisation of an enemy during a time of war and the exultation of the cult of personality of the leaders of totalitarian states. Parallels (in form, if not content) to the Two Minutes Hate can be seen in real-world propaganda films from World War II.
I wouldn’t know this Olbermann guy if he dropped dead on my front porch, and couldn’t find MSNBC if my life depended on it. I like it that way.
If Keith Olbermann had a one-hour special and nobody was watching, would he still make a sound?
Or...he will badly emabarass himself and let himself be seen as the arrogant a-hole he really is.
...so how will this left wing rant differ from any of his other shows?
Keithie Olberdouche will further demonstrate his total INSANITY tonight with an hour long incoherant Rant by a Momma’s Baby! Real Women wont even go near him, John Gibson had to pull him from his bathtub in a NUDE FETAL Position at CNN during the Clinttooon Impeachment D ays and now Thankfully Bob Costas has gotten the Idiot thrown off of Sunday Night Football! Olberdouche is the perfect Symbol and Flagship Talent for the Insane and Idiotic PMSNBC INSANE ASYLUM!..:-)
Isn’t it considering one of the classic signs that a show has jumped the shark when they have “A Very Special” episode?
“I’m having sex with staffers....”
Followed by the introduction of a lame new character, like Cousin Oliver.
